plainmilitary Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Nice pics Alan, I just love the MLRS. Any idea of the date of the firing.

alan turner (RIP) Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 The US lizard scheme was delivered overnight and under raps some time in 1985. The chap waving his arms is connected to the subject of this thread, and the first firing in the UK was from the image a cold snowy morning sometime in 1987 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schliesser92 Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 That camo scheme wasn't "lizard" - it was known as MERDC, and came in several varying schemes depending on the theatre of operation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
